Hit the size ceiling
Portals ask for 20 KB, 50 KB or 100 KB and reject everything else. Drop the image, set the ceiling, and get a file that fits — compressed, resized and re-encoded in this tab. Nothing is uploaded, and the camera metadata goes with it.

Drop it, size it
The tool searches for the highest quality that still fits under your KB ceiling. If it cannot get there without wrecking the image, it says so.

Questions about compression
- Does my image get uploaded?
- No. The file is decoded by your browser, redrawn on a canvas and re-encoded there. There is no server in the path, so a photo you would not send to a random website stays on your device.
- Can it hit an exact size like 20 KB?
- It can hit a ceiling — it will not knowingly go over the KB you set. To get under it, the tool lowers quality and, if that is not enough, reduces dimensions once. If it still cannot reach the number, it tells you rather than shipping a ruined image.
- Does it remove location and camera data?
- Yes, as a side effect of re-encoding. Drawing the image onto a canvas and exporting it produces a new file without the original EXIF block, which is where GPS and camera details live.
- Which format should I choose?
- WebP is usually 25–35% smaller than JPEG at the same visual quality and is supported everywhere current. Pick JPEG for older upload portals, and PNG only when you need transparency or lossless output.
- Why does the preview look different from the original?
- Lossy compression changes pixels. At very low KB targets you will see blocking and softness — that is the trade you are making. Check the preview before submitting the file to an exam portal or a client.
